4.1 Where a Member requests any variation to the Itinerary or other terms of carriage as detailed in the Booking Confirmation, including but not limited to the carriage of additional Passenger or amendments to scheduled departure time(s), additional charges may be payable. Should Victor determine that additional charges are payable these shall be settled on demand by the Member named in the Booking Confirmation, failing which the requested variation(s) will not be actioned by Victor.

To the extent a Member or any Passenger fails to comply with such terms, Victor shall be under no liability whatsoever, nor shall it be under any obligation to make alternative travel arrangements for the Member and/or Passengers in the event of any resulting travel disruption.

Should such an offer be accepted, the Member shall, unless otherwise agreed by Victor, be liable for any associated costs exceeding the balance (if any) of the Member’s funds held in Victor’s client account.

4.12 Members acknowledge and agree that the captain of the relevant Aircraft is entitled to take all necessary safety precautions at any time, including but not limited to the full authority to make decisions regarding payload (passengers, luggage and cargo), planned route, flight timings, the sufficiency of weather conditions for safe flight and ultimate landing destination.
